Host Info

7.6

The property is located on the main plaza of the town of Manarola, the central town of Cinque Terre.
What makes my property special is the location and the features of the room : all the amenities for a perfect stay are guaranteed, from the large and luxurious bathrooms to the powerful WiFi connection.
Everything is located at 2 minutes walking time from the rooms : grocery store, local restaurants with fresh food, bars and cafè, train station, vista points and the big net of the Cinque Terre trails.This will be your home in Cinque Terre!
Letting the guest live like a local is our mission : our genuine property derives from an authentic fisherman house totally rebuilt for the comfort of the guests.

My passion is toget in contact with people from different countries and cultures : having rooms to rent is the perfect way to do it. It alllows me also to act as a tour guide with my guests, telling the best tips to get the most from their Cinque Terre Experience.

Our neighborhood is precious : everything is at a glance from our place, so you'll be anywhere in just few minutes walking time. There are restaurants, pubs, cafè, grocery stores, trekking shops and travel agency useful to plan your trips in Cinque Terre.
The beginning of the mayor Cinque terre trails are only minutes away.

Booking.com Guest Review Guidelines

To keep the rating score and review content relevant for your upcoming trip, we archive reviews older than 24 months.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Reviews Vision

We believe review contributions and property responses will highlight a wide range of opinions and experiences, which is critical in helping guests make informed decisions about where to stay.

Reviews Principles

Contributions to Booking.com are a reflection of the dedication of our guests and properties, so we treat them with the utmost respect.

Whether negative or positive, we'll post every comment in full, as quickly as possible, after it's moderated to comply with Booking.com guidelines. We'll also provide transparency over the status of submitted content.

After a review has been submitted, you can modify it by contacting Booking.com customer service.

We'll use the same guidelines and standards for all user-generated content, and for the property responses to that content.

We'll allow the contributions to speak for themselves, and we won’t be the judge of reality. Booking.com’s role is to be a feedback distributor for both guests and properties.

Guidelines and Standards for Reviews

These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.

Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.

All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.

Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.

The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.

By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Translations disclaimer

This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Booking.com questions and answers guidelines

Questions and answers should be property- or room-related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Don’t include any personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed. Issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be directed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.

Avoid using profanity or approximations of profanity with creative spelling – in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit language, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not allowed.

“Comfortable stay”

It is at the top of the hill and it is an effort with luggage, but it is worth it. Giovanni's instructions to find the accommodation are easy to follow. The room was modern, very clean and comfortable. The area is quiet and away from the day trippers.
A very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

“Very far uphill from the train station. ”

The location is NOT 100metres from the train station. It is more like 500 metres. After come out of the tunnel, you have to struggle through a long curve, steep road uphill. Once you reach the church on top, you have to call Gionvanni to get the code to open the door.

The room is well furnished. It would be great if there is a bath mat (as the bathroom floor is slippery) and a towel rack or a peg to hang a towel.
